List previously private repository as being a fork
I followed the answer here to fork a public repository into my private one. Now I want to list it as public, but it doesn't display as being a fork of that original repository.
How can I make a (previously private) fork be listed as a fork?
github git-fork

You cannot, considering your private repo was not a fork in the first place.
What you can do is:
- create an actual (public fork)
- push your new commits from your private repo local clone to your new public fork, restoring your work in that public fork.
